More than 40 million smartphone users tap at least one fitness or wellness app regularly, according to a new Parks Associates report. What's more, according to the report, connected mHealth devices represented 4 percent of U.S. machine-to-machine connections last year with the figure expected to double by 2019, and one in four heads of broadband-using households currently are using an app to track fitness or calories.
Increasing mHealth technology adoption may provide a huge market opportunity for mobile carriers who align connected health businesses with connected living strategies, explains Jennifer Kent, Parks Associates' director, research quality and innovation. But there are more than a few obstacles, she tells FierceMobileHealthcare.
"Success in the wellness and fitness space requires a particular relationship with consumers--that is, consumers must see the carrier brand as one that enables quality experiences," Kent tells FierceMobileHealthcare in an email interview.
